Of coarse one our top sellers is more or a category than a flavor, "Customize Your Own". If you are unacquainted, we let you choose up to three flavors from our ever growing list of flavors to mix your own creation. Some of these we mix and........well they smell good enough to eat, others......I wouldn't vape them with a ten-foot carto (I do recall a clove, spearmint, peanut butter. No offense to the person that ordered it, hope you enjoyed it).

Please do us, and yourself, a favor. In the shipping comments at checkout tell us what you are aiming for. Such as "I want equal peanut butter, clove and spearmint". Or I want peanut butter with a backnote of spearmint and just a hit of clove". See how those two are very different. We try to connect with our customers, but it is sometimes difficult to picture your visions. The last thing we want is for anybody to be disappointed.

I would love to hear some feedback about some these out of the ordinary Customize Your Own (CYO). How'd they come out????????

I wouldn't really consider my CYO (Catholic Youth Organization?) orders to be "out of the ordinary," but I'll share my experience.

1)
Orange Cream
Orange Cream
French Vanilla

This was an attempt to make something close to an orange creamsicle (this was before the Orange Creampop gourmet flavor was developed). It turned out to be absolutely delicious, despite tasting more like a baked good than a creamsicle. When filling a carto with it, I would usually mix in some drops of Strawberry Cheesecake to complement it, and maybe one drop of Bananas Foster. This positive experience led me to then order:

2)
Raspberry
Raspberry
French Vanilla

and

3)
Strawberry
Banana Creme
French Vanilla

These two CYO flavors were purchased to be mixed with an OrangeCream/OrangeCream/FrenchVanilla doubler (1oz nic to 2oz doubler). The resulting Raspberry/Orange Cream/French Vanilla mix was somewhat decent, but the Strawberry/BananaCreme/OrangeCream/FrenchVanilla mixture was an absolute winner, tasting like a sweet & creamy straw-banana yoghurt! I just ordered some more today!

4)
Pineapple
Add Dairy
Coconut

This CYO creation grew out of my search for an enjoyable piña colada liquid. Obviously, my first attempt involved simply ordering TV's Piña Colada. The alcohol flavor ruined what was otherwise mouth-watering perfection. On my second attempt, I ordered TV's Strawberry Colada, and in the order notes asked for them to make it a "virgin" colada, leaving out the butter rum and Bacardi flavorings. The result was discouraging -- it wasn't quite there yet, and it still kind of tasted like alcohol. My third attempt was the above-mentioned CYO flavor, and it turned out pretty darn good! On today's order, I decided to get two different 1oz nic juices and one 2oz doubler, in order to further explore the possibilities of my CYO piña colada.

5) Doubler
Add Dairy
Pineapple
Coconut

6)
Strawberry
Banana Creme
Coconut

and

7)
Coconut
Orange Cream
Pineapple

I'm very excited, suffice it to say, especially because of the other flavors that are on their way:
Lemon Poundcake
Brownie
Caramel Popcorn
Mango Ice Cream
Caramel/Coffee Cheesecake
Strawberry/Banana Creme/French Vanilla Waffles
Caramel/Pecan/French Vanilla Waffles

I spoil myself, I know.
